What do you suggest if i had bitten by unvaccinated 21 months dog, what should i do?

Go to County health?: If the dog is owned by a friend and did not appear to be ill, there is very low likelihood of rabies. But if you were bitten by a wild dog or an unknown one, then you should call the county health department for vaccination recommendations as well as animal control to capture the dog.
